The Loom of Language: An Approach to the Mastery of Many Languages, Paperback/Frederick Bodmer

Descriere & specificații

Contributor(s): Author: Frederick Bodmer Editor: Lancelot Thomas Hogben But this book is more than a guide to foreign languages; it goes deep into the roots of all knowledge as it explores the history of speech. It lights up the dim pathways of prehistory and unfolds the story of the slow growth of human expression from the most primitive signs and sounds to the elaborate variations of the highest cultures. Without language no knowledge would be possible; here we see how language is at once the source and the reservoir of all we know.
